Not specifically, but as part of the Pwn2Own event to find vulnerabilities in commercial products, hackers hacked the Samsung Galaxy S22 several times. Organized by the Zero Day Initiative (ZDI), the annual Pwn2Own event was held in Toronto, Canada. Essentially, it is a research conference where hackers can demonstrate their prowess in hacking commercial products. All data is then passed on to the producers to “close the holes”.

Hackers, as part of Pwn2Own, have found several vulnerabilities in network attached storage (NAS) systems from HP, NETGEAR, Synology, Sonos, TP-Link, Canon, Lexmark and Western Digital, but the fastest device they’ve managed to crack is the Samsung Galaxy S22. it happened.

Hacker teams STAR Labs and Chim found two holes in the security of the Galaxy S22 on the first day of Pwn2Own that allow full access to the phone. On the second day of the event, hackers from the Pentest Limited group hacked the phone again, and on the third day, the Galaxy S22 was hacked for the fourth time, in a record time of just 55 seconds. It is important that all devices submitted for Pwn2Own hacking have the latest updates installed – this is one of the requirements of the competition.
